‘Avengers: Endgame’ Trailer: A New Face Appears

You can be forgiven if you feel as if you’ve seen it all before when you start watching the new trailer for “Avengers: Endgame.” Disney has already released two other promotional clips for its forthcoming superhero movie, and the latest uses footage from previous films going all the way back to “Iron Man,” which officially kicked off the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2008.

As Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) himself puts it, “God, it seems like a thousand years ago, I fought my way out of that cave, became Iron Man.” Scenes from later films in the series, including “Captain America: The First Avenger” and “Thor,” follow.

It all seemingly culminates with the conclusion to the cliffhanger from last year’s “Avengers: Infinity War,” in which many of the titular crime-fighters disintegrated, and the survivors vowed to, yes, avenge their apparent deaths.

Finally, after the film’s title flashes on the screen, there’s a new face: Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) — fresh off her $500 million-plus opening week at the worldwide box office — appears, and Thor (Chris Hemsworth) declares, “I like this one.”

Whether moviegoers have a similar feeling about “Avengers: Endgame”will be determined when the film hits theaters on April 26.
